"Frozen for thousands of miles!" Maple stayed with Hermione for an hour before she finally thought of poor Harry at Hermione's reminder. Back in the library, Maple had forgotten where Harry was, but the Illusion Charm, while invisible, could not make a person's entity disappear.

Maple used thousands of miles of ice to freeze a layer of frost on the floor of the library, and when the frost spread to Harry's feet, he finally found his location.

"I'm sorry, Harry!" After freeing Harry, Maple apologized to Harry repeatedly.

In order to ask Harry for forgiveness, Maple shared one of his secrets with Harry -

"Room of Responsiveness!"

"It's amazing that there's such an interesting place in the school!"

The next morning, a violent snowstorm broke out outside, and Professor Sprout canceled his herbal medicine class. In such bad weather, the mandrakes had to be taken care of more carefully, and Professor Sprout was not comfortable leaving such a task to the students. In order to prevent the mandrakes from getting frozen, Professor Sprout dressed them in socks and scarves like children, instead of casting a warmth charm on the mandrakes. Although magic is easier and more effective against cold, casting spells on mandrakes in this way will also affect its medicinal properties.

Since Riddle and Clearl have already made the first move because they discovered the secret room of the secret room, Maple naturally has to repay them well, make the secret of the secret room public, and harvest a wave of academic tyrants by the way.

Because of the cold weather, most of the students stayed indoors to keep warm, and there was a large circle of people around the fire in the common room.

Maple and they should be glad that their class today was a herbal medicine class. In such bad weather, none of the classes of any professor except Professor Sprout were cancelled. Snape's Potions class, in particular, was particularly steamy in the basement due to the cold weather.

Because under the influence of steam and water mist, the student's vision was greatly affected, which caused a big problem with the configuration of potions. It was almost the last Potions class before the Christmas break, but Snape didn't intend to leave them with any pleasant memories before the break, and all but Slytherin had been mercilessly deducted a lot of points from the students.

In Gryffindor's common room, Maple sees Neville and many of his other classmates still wearing ridiculous amulets.

It just so happened that Maple used this to tell them the secret of the secret room-

"Neville, why do you have that ridiculous amulet, something like this is useless in front of the monsters in the Chamber of Secrets."

"If you're really worried about your safety, you should bring a rooster with you, so that you can protect yourself from the monsters in the secret room!"

Since Riddle was so worried about Hagrid's, Maple had Hogwarts all stuffed with cocks.

"Rooster?"

"How can you be sure that the rooster will be able to protect us from the monsters in the secret room, right," a clever young man suddenly realized, and then showed a look of surprise: "Do you know what the monster in the secret room is?" ”

"Yes, the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is the Basilisk Basrisk!" Then Maple told the public about the Basrisk materials in the school library.

"The basilisk is most afraid of the rooster's crow, and if you make direct contact with the basilisk, you will die, as long as you close your eyes, you will not have an accident. But even if you close your eyes, the basilisk's deadly fangs will kill. So instead of closing your eyes, you might as well wear glasses. ”

"Direct contact with the basilisk will kill, but indirect contact will be like seeing the reflection of the basilisk's eyes in the water, just like Lady Loris. Although you will be petrified like Lady Loris, Professor Sprout's mandrake can help you depetrify when it matures, and the basilisk will no longer have any appetite for you after petrification, so Lady Loris's petrification will not be eaten by the basilisk after petrification! ”

When the news that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk spread wildly in the school, Maple also received the top student value one after another. Maple also thought that at Christmas, he would tell all the students in the school the news by letter at a staggered time, so that he could gain a little bit of academic excellence from every student in the school.

But after thinking about it, he still gave up, and Maple was worried that after such a comical operation, the system would change the settings again, further depreciating the value of the top student in his hand. The road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high, and the arms can't be more than the thighs after all, so it's better to go with the flow now.

Although he was defeated by Maple, it was a rare snowstorm, and Riddle had no reason to let go of such an opportunity. And after Maple and the others spread the secret of the basilisk, it was not so easy for him to make such an activity like the basilisk.

The Hufflepuff towers appear to be undefended, but in reality they are protected. The Hufflepuff Tower is next to the kitchen, and the house-elf group in the kitchen was protected by the Hufflepuffs of the Big Four and had a place to live at Hogwarts.

Out of gratitude to the Hufflepuff Lady, the house-elves in the kitchen are a hidden guardian of Hufflepuff. It's just that house-elves are okay against ill-intentioned students or ordinary wizards, and their strength in front of the basilisk is not enough.

Riddle was unlucky, and although today's herbal medicine class was canceled, the Hufflepuff students who didn't attend the class gathered in the library. On the contrary, Justin of Gryffindor, after knowing that Harry had the ability of the Parseltongue, did not dare to stay under the same roof as Harry, so he left the Gryffindor Tower and hid in the Hufflepuff dormitory.

Colin, who was originally Harry's little fan, was also frightened of Harry by Hufflepuff's Ernie, and left the Gryffindor Tower with Justin, and then was attacked by the basilisk together.

If it weren't for the help of Nick, who was almost headless, Colin would have been cold this time without his camera, and Ernie would have almost killed someone else because of his ignorance.

Ron was still lying in the hospital, and Harry was lying alone in his dorm room reading books to pass the boring time, because he couldn't stand the strange stares on the faces of his Gryffindor classmates after learning that he knew he could speak in a parseltongue.

Just then, Harry suddenly heard a noise coming from the window, and Harry turned his head to see an owl banging on the glass in the window.

"How can someone send a letter in such weather?" Harry walked over and opened the window to let the owl in.

The owl was so strange that when Harry opened the window, it was just standing on the windowsill and not flying in.

Harry frowned and walked over to chase the owl away. Because of the cold weather today, the windows were open, and the cold air outside the house was blowing in.

As Harry was standing by the window, his body suddenly flew out uncontrollably, flying dozens of feet into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.

"Harry, why are you in the hospital too?" Hermione, who was leaning on the hospital bed reading a book, couldn't help but be surprised to see Harry also being taken to the hospital.

"Don't mention it, I don't know what's going on." Harry still feels inexplicable, having been thrown from the sky and broken in multiple places, and if he were in the Muggle world, Harry would have been largely paralyzed. And he lay in the ice and snow for a long time in thin clothes, and finally someone found him and sent him to the hospital. Harry also wanted to know who the killer was, but unfortunately there were no clues.

When Colin Clinway and Justin Finchrie's petrified bodies were taken to the hospital, Harry and Hermione no longer cared about who the killer was, and their focus returned to the Chamber of Secrets.

But when he stopped paying attention to the answer, the answer came to his door by himself-

In the middle of the night, Harry suddenly woke up. At first, he thought it was the pain in his body that woke him up, but soon, he heard the sound of someone crying in the dark.

"Fluorescent flicker!" Hermione was also awakened, and it was pitch black, and Hermione immediately took out her wand at the bedside and chanted a fluorescent charm.

"Dobby!" By the glow of the glow of the Fluorescent Charm, Harry quickly recognized the man beside his bedside, no, the creature, he turned out to be Dobby, a house-elf.

The house-elf stared at Harry with two big tennis eyes, and kept looking at Harry, tears rolling down his long pointed nose like a kite with a broken string.

"Harry Potter is back in school," he whispered sadly, "Dobby reminded Harry Potter several times. Ah, sir, why don't you heed Dobby's warning? Harry Potter didn't catch the train, so why not go home? ”

"What are you doing here?" Harry asked, "How do you know I didn't catch the train?" ”

"You did it!" Seeing Dobby's trembling body and empty eyes, Harry immediately understood, "You sealed the wall and didn't let us pass!" ”

"Exactly, sir." Dobby said, nodding desperately, flapping his two big ears, "Dobby hid next to him, waited for Harry Potter, and then sealed the passage, and Dobby had to use an iron to burn his hands afterwards," he showed Harry his ten long fingers with bandages, "But Dobby doesn't care, sir, Dobby thought Harry Potter was safe now, Dobby never dreamed that Harry Potter would actually go back to school!" ”

He swayed back and forth, his ugly head swinging.

"Dobby was so shocked to hear that Harry Potter had returned to Hogwarts and burned his master's dinner! What a whipping, Dobby hasn't experienced it before, sir! ”

"You almost made it impossible for Ron and me to get to school," Harry said angrily, "You'd better get out of the way, Dobby, or I'll strangle you." ”

Harry didn't expect Dobby to just smile faintly. "Dobby is used to the threat of death. Dobby is at home five times a day. ”

He blew his nose from the corner of the dirty pillowcase he was wearing, and it looked pitiful, and Harry felt his anger subside involuntarily.

"Why are you wearing that, Dobby?" He asked curiously.

"This, sir?" Dobby said, tugging at his pillowcase, "This symbolizes the slavery status of the house-elves, sir." Dobby can only be set free when Dobby's master gives him clothes to wear. The house was very careful to enter, and he didn't even give Dobby a pair of socks, sir, because then Dobby would be free and leave their house forever. ”

"What's the difference between you and slaves, and why hasn't anyone stepped forward to stop this?" Hermione heard what happened to Dobby and was filled with indignation.
